Wowzers Its Been A Little While Since I've Been On!



Recommended Posts

Heyyyyyy everyone!! I feel so out of loop its been about 2 months since I've been here.. how has everyone been? Ive been really busy with work and school and just life lol. But just wanted to you all a little on my progress and status. So I've been doing very well since surgery May2nd everything went smooth no complications at all. Since surgery I am down 32lbs so all together 62lbs down!! whoop whoop. I had my Second fill June 6th well first I guess..they put a little Fluid in my band at surgery. I had no restriction at the time so I was so happy to get one. As of right now my restricion is very minimal I have a large band 14ccs so I think I may need more of a fill to get to the green zone. Good thing is im still making good choices and eating in my baby bowl and spoon and working out almost everyday. I had an appointment July 26th for a fill but at the time I had lost around 14lbs since my last fill so I didnt think I needed one. My next fill is September 6th and I think I will get one this time. Anyway im rambling sorry. The only issues I have had is with Hair loss in my edges. I started taking Biotin 5000mg so hopefully that helps out a little besides that I haven't had an issue getting stuck or throwing up so far and hopefully things go well with my next fill! :-)

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
